Grouping Assumption Effects in Bridges

In bridges, you are able to either show line-items of the same assumption separately or grouped.

This enables you to either see the effect of each line-item separately or see the effects combined for the assumption.

To change this setting, go to the “Bridge Settings” in the chart editor and use the toggle button for “Group Assumption Effects”.

Example:

In this first picture, you see two bars with the name “Volume” and the “Group Assumption Effects” toggle button is off.

In this second picture, the “Group Assumption Effects” toggle button is on and the previous two separate bars have been combined into one grouped “Volume” bar.

Grouping Assumption Effects for Line Items

When configuring a bridge to show line items instead of assumptions on the x-axis, a line item with two different variants across two displayed scenarios can cause this effect. Since version 6.4.0, the 'Group assumption effects' option will also group these variants into a single bar.
